The left in the UK has needed someone as principled and charismatic as @zackpolanski.bsky.social for a long, long time. Really exciting to see where Zack takes @greenparty.org.uk - and I particularly look forward to working together to protect and improve the rights of refugees. #zackpolanski

To be clear - it is now illegal to engage in non-violent action against a genocide. But entirely legal to volunteer to participate in the genocide and openly support it

Yesterday, we shared a wonderful mother's day celebration with our friends at Stanley arts. This was a jam-packed day of storytelling, card making (written in many mother tongues), kids comedy (bum jokes galore) and scrumptious cake made by the Stanley Arts team! #refugeeswelcome

Mylene, Sarya, and Isis are each walking/running/cycling or swimming 5K a day for 31 days to raise money for Fences & Frontiers! Donate today to push them through the pain: localgiving.org/fun.../Miles... #refugeeswelcome #withrefugees

Really positive to see @citybridgefndn.bsky.social recognising the importance of offering core funding by default. www.civilsociety.co.uk/news/major-f...

We will not restore trust in politics without giving people a real say in the decisions that affect them Great to work w/ @bigissue.com & @right-here.org on this: www.bigissue.com/news/social-... Local people & organisations understand their communities best & are best place to make key decisions

You don't defeat fascism through appeasement. You don't defeat fascism by becoming fascist - lessons I presumed we all learned in year 8.

Proud to be one of signatories on this letter (representing @fencesfrontiers.bsky.social ) opposing the decision to bar refugees who arrive by irregular means from citizenship Nothing but performative cruelty @theguardian.com @refugeestogether.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Barring those who take dangerous routes from British citizenship is nothing but performative cruelty! #refugeeswelcome

Seeking sanctuary is an act of love. ❤️ Some families travel together. Some take dangerous journeys alone, in the hope their risk will open safer routes for loved ones. So let’s show some compassion on this day of passion. Show your orange hearts! #RefugeesWelcome #valentinesday

The route or means a person takes to find safety has no relationship to the legitimacy of their claim. This should not be something that needs spelling out under a Labour government. #refugeeswelcome

Just came across this great blog by Taran N. Khan about a 'Never Walk Alone' trip to Kew Gardens organised by @fencesfrontiers.bsky.social, an organisation that supports refugees and asylum seekers. @rbgkew.bsky.social www.runnymedetrust.org/blog/putting...

Cheers to All The Elements for taking the time to feature @fencesfrontiers.bsky.social last month! #refugeeswelcome

Painting Pete Seeger as some bumbling jobsworth - what a joke. Time for a right of reply biopic. And don't get me started on that weird Cash characature! Urgh. #acompleteunknown

Earlier this year I wrote a piece in Alliance Mag about the mutual benefits of philanthropists supporting grassroots groups like @fencesfrontiers.bsky.social www.alliancemagazine.org/blog/why-sma... With many grant bodies reducing awards, these relationships are key to the survival of smaller orgs

We're excited to be working with @stanleyarts.bsky.social this winter, bringing our participants a festive mix of workshops and performances! This Sunday our families were treated to the colourful tale of Prancer the Dancer and his dance powered time machine! #refugeeswelcome #artforall

Our final ramble of the year saw us back on the Parkland Walk, an old railway line turned nature reserve. It was amazing to have such a big, lively group - swinging on ropes and fighting with leaves! Our walks may be in hibernation but 2024 has plenty more in store! #refugeeswelcome
